useless lesbian

Wlw missing signals

A useless lesbian is a woman attracted to women who becomes awkward, tongue-tied, or paralyzed by indecision around women she finds attractive—unable to make a move or recognize when someone is flirting with her.

The term is affectionate and self-deprecating, used within queer communities: She's been staring at that girl for an hour—such a useless lesbian.

The humor lies in the gap between desire and action.
